i signed a contract with the admins so the mods could sexually harass me politely, and that makes it extra legal. no i’m not referring to any specific communities or instances.

  • Amendment XIV
    Section 1. [emphasis added]

    All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

    it seems if they had to state it twice it was both a problem and important. fuck that it’s a problem again. Also to echo your sentiment, person not citizen.












  • If you’re not good enough

    i apologize, but this is my hobby horse. so, here is my musician rant.

    have you heard stevie nicks lately? she’s just aged, same as the rest of us. her voice ain’t what it used to be, that’s no reason to ban someone from live performing. take it from someone who has been a very bad professional musician, the line of “are you good enough” is “do you have the chutzpah to stand up in front of a crowd”. that’s it. punk is full of musicians who are terrible at their instruments but they play together, they have the emotion and they have fun. The Gin Blossoms’ guitarist knew two chords and one strumming pattern on their first two albums and was really more of a country guitarist than a pop/alternative guy. Thousands of people remember their songs fondly. It’s not about good, it’s about emotion and enjoyment, and if you get that when you play that’s what people go to see. -source i’ve played with tower of power, afterglow, confunkshun, i’m not going to name my band or the actual local bands that i sit in with but sitting in with those 3 were the highlights

    anyways.
